Assignment: "Get Rid of the Mechanic, that 2nd Guy, he doesn't belong."For whatever reason, pilots can be particular when it comes to mechanics.This photo is 1 of 2 with the photo below. This plane is a crop duster now.This is a composite change-out, and it needs a free-hand-mouse redraw.Free-hand mouse-draw is from a very experienced artist with steady hand.That artist can draw a circle with a mouse perfectly round like a soccer ball.The type of plane and other facts are below as this project continues;

The client requested thewall be cleaned, take outthe wall-plug and tassel.The photo was cropped.We brighten and sharpen.

< 1st Set 1981 Polaroid; This Boy has Grown upWith his own permission we show him at 2. He is 38 today.Photo art digital tools are like the same as manual art tools.All photos have age spots we see mostly in dark or shadow.We clean a photo of spots that will distract the audience eye.

< 2nd Set:Change-out/Switch, Free-hand Draw, Comp.

< 4th Set - Color, Fade, Distorted, GoneWe don't colorize. We only pull out original colors.The red in this photograph bled from brown to allcomponents, including the rug she's sitting on. The hair, the dress and her skin was determined while working our master color mixer, hues, tints.According to its owner we have the hair correct,and the dress was correct but the sweater wasremembered as green. Red came back easily, sowe made our red, and the owner's green, sweater.The rug was not red but shows that as the originalbled red all over. This is the type of fade that canfool any color mixing engineer. We made a red sweater versionthen a green then printed both.The owner agrees it could havebeen either color. We trimmedthe color bleed from the belt andhand, corrected print-marks from,other photos, made blue eyes,printed two 8x10's, green & red.The owner is very happy.

Plane is a P47d Republic Thunderbolt Bomber. Motorcycle is '54 Norton. A "shack date" ('bomber girl') was the pride of all pilots on their plane.Irving Klaw painted the "shack date" graphics 1941-47. The model for the war planes was Betty Page, a pin-up girl, who became a Nun after war. Our customer wanted his buddy on his bike, and in front of his WW-2 airplane with his "shack date" behind him. They called him "cigar-man".

Photographer-shadow; Purse under arm; Cracks and worn spots; Color-FadeWe re-drew the ruffles on the blouse, free-hand mouse. Customer was happy.We'll remove cracks, scratches, torn parts. Color fade is corrected throughout.In the photo our customer is 19. Today she is in her 60's in a retirement home. She remembers that day. She knows the grass was green but not as faded. By request - the green grass was made greener and hair was darkened.Another (head) shadow on the left side on the grass was cropped out. Brighten, Sharpened as we do with all of our restorations, and printed.

< 8th Set: The 1883 School-Boy Tintype Photo

Our tintype photo specialist is able to restore a tintype even if faded to ash or black.Ferro-types were hand colored with dabs of color bits with 8 colors in a selection.Socks wrinkled and the stool rung is worn. Our first tintype, we're more meticulous.This has scratches, spots, fade, dust, worn colors and an assort of missing parts.Behind the subject is a door knob to lean against to keep a subject still for the lens. The original photographer painted a gold ring on this child's finger. We took it off.Tintypes were set inside a 1.25" X 1.75" frame with velvet pad and brass shroud.

Tintypes are always worth their restore.Perfect for family genealogy or collection.We are greatly careful of Tintype Photos.

Our before photo was faded to almost black (right).The chair is partially seen and needs to come out. We re-drew the chair with free-hand mouse-draw.We can make a chair look like an authentic wood.Our photo artists use tiny fine digital detailing tools.
